Sample Vial Change

It has been brought to our attention that there are issues with the wand cap style of sample vials. For now, in orders shipping from Oct 3rd onwards, some or all wand cap samples have been replaced with the screw cap vials (as shown here) & wand cap samples will remain unavailable for sale in new orders until a permanent solution is in place.

FAQ's

Are our products vegan?

All scents are small-batch, handmade, and will be vegan barring any expressly noted as 'non-vegan' in the scent index and on product pages. Any non-vegan materials are secondary animal by-products, such as butter CO2 extractions, beeswax absolute, etc. We do not use direct animal parts such as castoreum, deer musk, etc.

We also do not use endangered or threatened plant materials, to the best of our knowledge. If you see notes listed like rosewood, sandalwood, etc., those are reconstructions utilizing synthetics &/or other natural materials aside from the threatened species.

Do we use AI?

PULP Fragrance is, and always has been, staunchly anti-AI, and that will never change. We do not use it in the creative process, including avoiding AI tools embedded in Photoshop or Canva, to the best of our knowledge. There are some AI functions embedded into Shopify that we are not able to avoid, but we have opted out of all functions where that's an option. On the desktop, we are in the process of moving from Microsoft Office to Libre, given Libre's overt anti-AI stance.

What carrier do we use in your perfume oils?

Perfume oils are presented in a proprietary combination of FCO (Fractionated Coconut Oil) & IPM (Isopropyl Myristate). Some scents may also contain small amounts of other solvents used in the compounding process, such as ethanol, DPG, or TEC. We do not use DEP or other phthalates.

Will there be free samples in the order?

Every order includes one free sample, selected at random. Note: free samples are not included in orders with larger size Gifts With Purchase, or during sale events when we need to keep fulfillment streamlined to manage higher order volume.

Free samples may include preview samples of upcoming releases. Requests for specific free samples greatly slow down our order processing times, so we have had to discontinue those.

Free bonus samples are bottled and packed in large batches, we can't guarantee that there will not be repeats of prior items sampled or purchased in earlier orders, though we do make efforts to prevent repeats within the same order when possible. Your understanding is appreciated!

If the free sample received is not listed on the Scent Index it is likely a preview of an upcoming collection. Scent Notes for preview samples will be added soon, if they are not there yet.

Do we accept returns?

Due to the nature of the products we sell, refunds or returns are not offered. It is always best to purchase samples of fragrances first, whenever possible, before committing to a larger size.
